Extended outage — Myrtle Grove, Pensacola, FL

 

Our Cox internet has been completely unavailable since Hurricane Isaias, despite our residence never losing electricity.

Cox has repeatedly postponed the estimated restoration time, and neither SmartHelp nor telephone technical support can confirm whether a repair crew has been dispatched.

Can a Cox representative please confirm whether this outage has an assigned field repair team, whether the damage has been identified, and when service is realistically expected to return?

We are requesting an actual repair status update, not another automated restoration estimate.

Hello,

 

I can certainly understand your concern with loss of service. We have dispatched additional crews to assist with restoring service to impacted areas. You can find additional details here: https://www.cox.com/residential/disaster-relief.html

Allen, how about giving us something here.   Trying to get to an https when your only access is a sketchy hotspot, is negligible.   It’s been 2 days….

I regret to say that I do not have an estimated timeline for service restoration due to the storm damage. However, updated estimates can be found via the app and the above-mentioned site.

So, Spectrum doesn’t think that communicating with customers during a mass service outage is important.  You’re not the only game in town anymore.  Do better!

My Nextdoor neighbor has AT&T.  He’s had internet all along.  I’m definitely switching over after this storm stuff is over!

@thewebbs18​ does your neighbor have fiber optic AT&T?  The only reason why I didn’t sign with them was due to my speed requirements since I work from home.

Sign up for updates they said.  We’ll keep you informed they said.  They lied.

Just because YOU have electricity, doesn't mean that Cox/Spectrum has it where it's needed to pass data/phone/cable tv. If a line/cable is down that somewhere on a power pole, then Cox has to wait until the power company has completed any repairs before THEY can make repairs.

Well... Cox needs to sign up for updates from ME.  I will update them on what time they can come get their $#17 from my house.  Opened my C-Spire account today.  $41 per month for 200mb, first two months free with a 60 month price guarantee.  Two can play that game.  BTW,  it's amazing for those poles that fall after 5:00 Friday only are repaired after 8:00 on Monday.

@Darkatt​ Does that mean that Cox can’t communicate that with its customers?!
